Morning folks. Get into work, and the *$%#$% here are testing the 150dB fire alarm system throughout the building. Saw the truck in the loading dock, so I knew it was going to be trouble. Sitting in my office with lights off and headphones on since I have work to do and I don't have the time to humor the public safety freaks by vacating unnecessarily.

Once, in college, there was a "fire drill" in the middle of the night, around 1:00 a.m. I was not getting out of bed. I woke up a couple times when my phone rang (which I did not answer), and at 4:30 I woke up to see fire trucks and such outside.

There really was a fire in one of the lounges!

My dorm was burning, and I slept through it. Boy were my friends angry when they found out that they had to crash on the floors of other friends' dorm rooms and I was all cozy in my own bed!

++++ K'selli, I apparently was able to vote for your LUV, Southwest Style a second time? I may be doing it wrong.

My parents said I would sleep through earthquakes, but I'm pretty sure I would've gotten up for a fire drill. Well, maybe not. It takes a lot to coax me out of a nice warm bed in the middle of the night.

When I was in high school in NY, this type of exchange was considered to be a form of courtship... not suggesting anything, just stating the weird place I went to school... seemed all the guys who were, shall we say, physical, with the ladies tended to be the ones all the girls wanted.

We were hoping to celebrate with the Taiwanese Students Association, but we didn't get tickets (gotta track down a student to buy them). Without being able to eat soy, we may be less than festive this year.

Yikes!

Hope Daj doesn't take it THAT way! I may have to stop coming to woot all together!
